You just dropped off your child at the bus stop.
A panicked stranger calls your phone.
Your child has been kidnapped, and the stranger explains that their child has also been kidnapped, by a completely different stranger.
The only way to get your child back is to kidnap another child within 24 hours.
Your child will be released only when the next victim's parents kidnap yet another child, and most importantly, the stranger explains, if you don't kidnap a child, or if the next parents don't kidnap a child, your child will be murdered.
You are now part of The Chain
The Chain is a fast paced, engaging and highly addictive read which grabs the readers attention from the very start and keeps that attention to the very last word.
A parent's worse nightmare is that their child is missing, only made worse when they receive a phone call to say that they have actually been kidnapped. I am sure that a parent will do anything necessary to get their child back in their arms, however if the only way is to kidnap another child what would you do?
The Chain would make a great book to read and discuss within a book club as I am sure that there will be many opposing views towards the content.
I really enjoyed the book and although I found the second half of the book weaker, I still had to read to the end. The plot was addictive and the characters were believable and I cared about them.
I received this book as part of Orion Books The Chain blog tour in return for an honest review.
